The Ugly Face of Politics - Continued

Ran across this gem today. What’s ironic is that I could provide similar examples pretty much every day. Kind of an alternative to the daily dose of Trump bashing threads.

DEMs simply can’t deal with any kind of dissent. Dissenters must be physically and verbally put down.

Sure. Because Trump supporters would never do anything like this.

Oh wait…

So because of the actions of one guy you broad brush everybody. Don’t get mad next time someone lumps your side in with those guys in Charlottesville.

That isolated incident happened two years ago. The crap I’m talking about happens pretty much every day.

Seriously? You haven’t been paying much attention.

If that’s the case you should make a running thread of these incidents so you can back up your claims.

I could probably create a new thread each day, but forum members would soon tire and ignore them. A running thread would be a good novelty for a short period of time, but again interest would quickly fade.

What’s ironic is that anyone who is paying attention can see this stuff for themselves in the news. This one wasn’t an isolated case. It just happened to be the one I saw this morning.

Both sides know that each is prone to isolated acts of violence by unstable members. Trying to say this is only done by the left (or right) is what people get tired of. A quick Google search can find plenty of examples either way.

Here’s one of the first that comes up when looking for examples of violence by Trump supporters.

What a second someone went to see a punk rock band and got beat up!!!

I am super super shocked usually knitting circles happen at such concerts.

No president in the history of probably, like, ever has so unified the American people the way Donald has.

This guy was looking for attention and possibly a lawsuit settlement, but I have to say - standing up and giving Social Distortion the finger in the middle of their concert was the most punk thing he could have done at the time. :wink:

The alleged victim stated "If you can speak your mind but you can’t take a response or rebuttal,” he told the paper, “it shows a lot about your character.”

Wise words, Mr. Hildebrand.

That simply isn’t true.

Here is a sub headline from your link: "Cops seemed more concerned with antifa."

The major headline is misleading. If you read the article, you will see that ANTIFA was responsible for most of the violence. When directly confronted by ANTIFA thugs, the organizers did defend themselves.

Pretty much the response I was expecting.

Nothing to see here. :roll_eyes:

Yep! Its Trump’s fault. :roll_eyes:

You got the response you deserve.

He was referring to the singer.

Please don’t stop!

I don’t think this thread has gone the way peak thought it would.

I think it was politically motivated.

Yep! How dare I expose the ugly face of liberalism.

I see the mods changed the subject of my thread to be more PC.

All you are doing is showing without guns or cars you guys can’t win a fight.
